...roughing penalty against U.S. defenseman Nicki Luongo--the runner-up to new teammate A.J. Mleczko '99 for last season's Patty Kazmaier Award--gave Harvard another man-advantage. This time, Shewchuk raced down the right wing to fire a shot on Erin Whitten, the Americans' second netminder of the game, and junior center Kiirsten Suurkask knocked in the rebound...

...Overall, the election is likely to be good news for both Yeltsin and his appointed successor, Putin. A strong showing by Unity, as well as the pro-Kremlin Union of Right-Wing Forces headed by former prime minister Sergei Kiriyenko, will create a solid pro-Kremlin bloc in the traditionally anti-Kremlin legislature.

...with immigration authorities, legal challenges by the boy's relatives - backed by Cuban exile organizations - are likely to delay his early return. In what may be a reflection of the ironic symbiosis across the Florida Straits, it's been a tremendous propaganda boost both to Castro and the right-wing exiles in Miami. While most experts agree that U.S. courts will ultimately rule that a six-year-old boy should go home to his daddy, that looks unlikely to happen before the Miami exiles have exhausted his value as a cause célèbre. And the delay simply...
